Pet care experience
I truly believe in quality of experience for my clients. I don't just come hang out in your home and feed your fur babies, I work to develop positive relationships and good experiences. I have much more flexible availability than most since I'm available to be with your animals the majority of the day most days of the week. I teach at the community college and classes are in 3 hour increments. I only teach 3 days a week and usually only 1 or 2 class a day so I can offer no more than 6.5 hours in between potty breaks. My background is in training patrol dog including obedience and task specific behaviors - so I can do behavioral work with your dogs if you'd like. I exercise them not just physically, but enjoy challenging them mentally as well. Walks are catered to your dogs energy level and needs, but lovin's are constant. I do ranges from puppy (2 months >) to elderly. I'm comfortable providing medications and individualized experience for each dog or cat. I'm in a phase in life where I can't have my own dog right now, but I would love to take care of yours like it was my own. There is no puppy to energetic, no old man/lady with too many needs and no situation that I can't handle. I may be a bit more pricey than others, but I always go the extra mile to make the experience great and I believe you get what you invest in. So invest in a great relationship with an amazing sitter for your pets safety and happiness and your peace of mind. Keep your animals at home in an environment they are used to - with a sitter who is super attentive and invested in them and you. I do have an infant that would have to come with me to stay. I've dog sat with him many times since his birth and I'm REALLY good about managing any dog/child interactions. I will happily bring him to the meet and greet (I prefer to) just to make sure your dogs are ok with my child.
Reviews
Lauren did an amazing job. She kept me up to date on my cats everyday and even went above and beyond on taking care of my house. Everything looks immaculate and my cats are extremely happy and healthy. I was away for three weeks and she made everything stress free. I will be using her again for any future trips I take.
Lauren is an amazing sitter. I completely trust her with my home and my girls. They always look well taken care of and happy when we get home. They love that Lauren gives them lots of love and cuddles, and plays ball with them and takes them for walks. She’s the best!
We really liked Lauren. She was great at communication with us about our dog. She left our house and yard clean. She was a great for our Ace who can be a handful. W
Lauren came by, whilst we were away , and fed and walked the dogs in the afternoon. I was nervous about anyone else handling Buddy, and Marley, because they are difficult on walks, and tend to be reactive towards other dogs, but I need not have worried because Lauren was in control of them, in a way that I am not. I am the one who needs training so she is going to come by, accompany me on a walk, and give me some tips on how to better control my errant animals. Thank you Lauren for doing a wonderful job!

How high of energy are they? What are their problem areas? What would you like me to work on with your dog? What are the commands you use? Is you dog good off leash? Do they have problems with other dogs/animals? What is your usual level of difficulty for adventures?
A typical day
I love to find new hikes and places in this beautiful state - I will gear a hike or walk towards your dogs abilities. We can also make our way to one of the many dog parks if your dog is good off leash to play.
